What makes you who you are?

Is it the music you listen to?

The clothes you wear?

The things you own?
![Page 6: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
True – our identity partly comes from individual tastes
and habits…
![Page 7: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
but also from the connections we have to others … like our family.
![Page 8: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Family is about being there to celebrate
accomplishments
![Page 11: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Family is about caring for one another
![Page 12: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
At baptism, you became a member of another
family …
![Page 13: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
God’s family
![Page 14: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Do you like receiving gifts?
![Page 15: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Guess what!As a member of God’s family, you’ve already received the
greatest gift of all
![Page 16: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
For God so loved the world that He sent His only Son so that
whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life
John 3:16
![Page 17: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
That’s amazing love
![Page 18: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
That’s the kind of love Godhas for you
![Page 19: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
and the kind of love Godwants you to show others.
![Page 20: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
So how can we respond to God’s love?
![Page 21: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Two ways:
![Page 22: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
1.Love God with all your
heart, soul and mind
![Page 23: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2.Love your neighbour just
like you love yourself
![Page 24: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
You do the first part by:
![Page 25: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Worshipping God
![Page 26: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Through prayer, devotion and reflection.
![Page 27: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
And, with God’s help, living your life in ways
that please God.
![Page 28: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
You can do the second by:
![Page 29: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Caring for the environment
![Page 30: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Listening to a friend who’s sad
![Page 31: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Or just by helping people
however you can.
![Page 32: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Here’s how Jesus explained it.
![Page 33: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Read Luke 10:25-37
![Page 34: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
You learned all about neighbours from Martin Luther’s
comments on the Ten Commandments in
the Small Catechism
![Page 35: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
We should fear and love God that we may not hurt nor harm our
neighbour in his body, but help and befriend him in every bodily need.
![Page 36: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
It’s realistic to help neighbours nearby but God’s family is spread
all over the globe!
![Page 37: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
How can we be neighbours to those in need who are so far away?
![Page 38: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
![Page 39: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Canadian Lutheran World Relief began in 1946 when Lutherans in
Canada wanted to share God’s love by helping people who were
suffering in Europe after World War II by bringing them to Canada.
![Page 40: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Since God loves us so much, through CLWR, we can still share His love with
people around the world in many different ways.
![Page 41: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
ELCIC members like yourself can’t personally help neighbours who are so far away …
![Page 42: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
but they can do it by giving moneyand other helpful items to Canadian Lutheran World Relief.
![Page 43: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
And governments in Canada oftensupport CLWR by providing
additional funds that increase the work CLWR can do.
![Page 44: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Canadians donated more than $1.5 million to CLWR to help people in Haiti
recover from an earthquake.
![Page 45: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
And through CLWR, Lutherans in Canada helped people in Japan after the
2011 earthquake and tsunami.
![Page 46: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
In Africa, Lutherans have helped people in areas suffering from drought.
![Page 47: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
And helped farmers grow more food.
![Page 48: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
When CLWR brings water to a community, it’s time to celebrate!
![Page 49: CLWR confirmation resource (ELCIC) (no video)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051609/547ea137b4af9f9b1a8b466a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Much of the work carried out by CLWR is made possible by partnerships with other
organizations.
